Sal Mazzeo is a slot machine collector and restorer, and joins me for this episode of For Amusement Only. He has a fantastic collection that has really sparked my new-found interest in slot machines!
He has multiple articles in Gameroom Magazine, as well as the COCA magazine.
Sal has made the generous offer for anyone looking for help with slots to shoot him an email at mazzeosa@fuse.net
As an interview episode, I did not wish to add in the development update this time, but the development of my multi-bingo is going very well indeed! You can follow along here: https://pinside.com/pinball/forum/topic/multi-bingo-machine
I'm working on the artwork and integration of the artwork with the code for Coney Island. Special thanks to Chris Dade and Ryan Claytor for all the help!
This episode is all about the 1950 Bally Turf King. I picked up this game back in January, and decided to have my eldest daughter do all the renovation/restoration on the game. Ava did a fantastic job, and unbelievably, she was interested every step of the way! The game is complete, and the only thing that really needs to be done one day is to polish the shooter rod housing and coin acceptor slot. Otherwise, it looks beautiful, and plays great!
Ava discusses some of the things that she learned during this odyssey, and she and I discuss gameplay and the difference between her and my gameplay styles.
Lastly, I discuss a deal on bingos in Baltimore, MD.
